Advent No.6: Remembering with Melina


Melina Stamati is currently living in Thessaloniki Greece and has a passion to see people encountering the love of Jesus in her country and other nations. After coming back from Bible College she has been involved in social justice in her nation, worship and youth ministry with the passion to see people united to lift up Jesus and people come to know Him.
 
Just before…..
What I love about Christmas is that people pause from their every day life and stop to gaze on Jesus birth. They look for ways to give, to connect with family, to even make peace with people with whom relationship has broken. What is it in this season that make people want to have everything right before the new year comes in? I don’ t know about you but many times Christmas season reminds me the urgency just before the rapture. This urgency that tells us that life is just more than what we see. There is something higher to live for. You were born for a cause. You are not just an accident… What if we lived each and every day with the same urgency, with the same sense of purpose that only eternity gives? Like a a new reality….lets say heaven… was coming to find us to be ready… the same as a new year is coming? What words would you wanted to say? What people would you wanted to meet? What would really matter for you? What if we were about to gaze not just Jesus as a small child but the Crucified and Risen Lord that paid for our redemption? Friend, He is real, He is Love. You can meet Him today and have Christmas everyday in your heart! Because He wants to be born in your heart and show you how much He loves you and how much you mean to Him. Receive Him today, He is beautiful! Just whisper His name, Jesus, and He will come and make everything new! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
